Abstract
The performance of crisis management organisations, such
as the fire services, has traditionally been evaluated
based on statistics or large-scale exercises. However,
numerical simulations can be used to expand our
understanding and to quantify the sufficiency of
existing or planned resources. The simulations can reveal
the impact of various organisational factors and
procedures on response times, helping answer the core
question: "How fast can resources be deployed - on
average, and in the worst case?
